With such a high salary, if this young master dared to sabotage her work, what else could he be but an enemy?
Claude had never seen such a bold tutor before.
He said angrily, "What is this supposed to be? If you're so capable, go ahead and hit me!"
Previous tutors had been driven to the brink of violence by him, and all were subsequently dismissed.
Morwenna, serious as ever, said, "As a teacher, it's not my place to physically discipline you, understand?"
Claude was silent.
Without giving him more time to respond, Morwenna continued, "I'll ask you again, which option do you choose?"
"C, I guess." Claude responded subconsciously.
"Wrong! The correct answer is B, because the yield on Bond A is $3 per $100. Bond B's rate, after calculation, gives us a total payback of approximately $105.68 per $100, which makes the profit $5.68, Bond C's rate leads to a total payback of about $103.09 per $100, with a profit of $3.09."
Morwenna then drew a little turtle on Claude’s face.
"Next question, in a race between two runners, Alpha and Beta, the relationship between distance S and time t is shown in the graph. Which of the following statements is correct? A: Alpha started before Beta. B: Beta ran a longer distance than Alpha. C: Alpha and Beta ran at the same speed. D: Alpha reached the finish line first. Which one?"
As soon as Morwenna finished stating the question, Claude promptly said, "D, it's definitely D!"
Morwenna smiled, pleased, and said, "Very good, that's correct. Let's continue."
From then on, Claude dared not disregard her instructions.
He almost never went out as he disliked the way people looked at him.
He had never attended formal schooling, having self-taught his elementary and middle school knowledge, only starting to hire tutors in high school, though he never liked any of them either.
After all, with his attitude, what did it matter whether he studied or not?
